Totteridge and Bowerdean ward action plan

Totteridge and Bowerdean ward partnership have developed an action plan to address local issues and improve opportunities for all.

This is part of the Opportunity Bucks programme which aims to help residents access the opportunities on offer in Buckinghamshire.

The ward partnership would like to hear your ideas on how to improve:

• education and youth engagement
• jobs, careers and skills
• quality of the public realm
• standard of living
• health and wellbeing

We want to hear from the community about your ideas to improve this area.

The ward partnership brings together local people, community groups, organisations, and councillors to take action on what’s important to their area.

We have identified priorities that we are working to address over the coming months:

• support for families living in poverty
• Portland House regeneration project and The NEXUS project St Andrews Church
• support and strengthen lunch clubs for the elderly and activities which reduce loneliness and social isolation for residents in the local community

Portland house (Arnison Avenue) is the local centre and is undergoing an improvement project to replace waste bins and engage with local businesses. An action plan is being put together to make progress with improvements to the local centre within the budget.

The Nexus Project involves improvements to St Andrews Church, Hatters Lane. Improvements will create greater accessibility throughout the week for a wide number of groups.

Tell us what’s important for your area:

• attend a ward partnership meeting- one-off or regularly
• be part of a working group linked to one of the above priorities or projects
• take part in further surveys
• email us and share your views
